Seasonal towers?

As in only 2-3/6 towers open during a season? That's a great idea!

"3 towers would cause mob fest", yeah complains about towering mobs, but not free pk mobs... sounds to me like you people just don't want to try in order to get another 1k hat.

I haven't done a 1k in three years, so that doesn't really bother me. And why would I complain about mob pking here?!? This is a thread title "towers.." Not "mob pk" so that would be very out of place here.

My reasons follows.
Over the summer many more guilds tower with a lot more members then over the school year.
Three towers wouldn't be enough to accommodate the amount of players that would want to tower.
So, why not have two or three "seasonal" towers that open during the summer and are closed the other seasons? That was the idea. It was presented by Thallen in a previous thread.
So our seasonal tower idea's are different. Though yours does have a interesting sound to it.

Either Sards or Deadwood, except Sards just had a rework leading us to believe that it's a long term tower, but Deadwood is rather "dead" therefore, I suspect this will be the new tower.

Yeah but Snowtown just had a rework with its respawn and its gone so anything could happen...

It's all okay. It's not like 6 towers isn't enough. Already there four towers owned by two guilds. Imagine when there's only three left standing and one guild holds them all.

Couldn't find the thread you mentioned talking about seasonal towering created by that guy.

So we are not on the same page? I'm pretty sure we were...
You are talking about having 3 towers open during certain seasons.

I was thinking the same thing, except maybe having the towers rotate once per month.

Examples:

Monthly tower rotation?

October: Deadwood, Sards, Castle
November: Sards, Castle, Mod
December: Castle, Mod, Swamp
January: Mod, Swamp, Destiny
February: Swamp, Destiny, Deadwood
March: Destiny, Deadwood, Sards
April: Deadwood, Sards, Castle

etc

I'll make a poll to see if anyone would like it.

The amount of tower guilds that will be attempting to attack 3 different towers will make it almost impossible for one single guild full of 25 members to hold all 3 of them.

I think you may see one or two more towers removed. I know that unless they do the "seasonal tower" idea, having 3 towers probabably would just cause a huge mob fest. I think that between 4-6 is where we should stand. I think swamp may be removed and replaced when Babord comes out, if/when it does. Overall, it makes sense to see those two towers removed. Snow had no traffic(as Rufus said in the previous thread) and York was the tower no one wanted. My opinion would be deadwood, seeing as it's probably the last of the less traveled towers. Though I hope it stays, becuase it's my personal favorite.

IMO mod will never be removed. It is the most balanced and trafficked tower in the entire game.

What's Babord pls tell me and deadwood should stay

Ill find the thread and link it. What I meant was having an extra tower or two open during the summer, and closed the rest of the seasons. Like you closed "tower A", for example, over all of winter, spring, and fall. But over summer it would be open to deal with the extra tower traffic. But, I only feel like that idea would be useful at 3-4 towers, not 6. Basically, I think 6 is too many over the slow months, but works over the summer.

Though your idea has pro's that I can't really ignore.
1. No more home towering, unless you can complete your 1k in a month(99% don't).
2. It would create an atmosphere where you couldn't hand towers over to people as effectively.

This is craycray, but I had a dream(not nightmare) of Deadwood Tower being removed.;)

I wish deadwood had a bigger flag room. Mod and destiny need a bigger flag hitbox because I can't hit it from the sides. And seasonal/weekly/monthly towers won't really fix the non comp tower thing as people can just find a way around this.

The rotation would make people not get bored of the same tower, plus towers wouldn't have to be removed. A change in scenery gives players a reason to play during a certain rotation ("Oh I'm good at taking castle, sards, etc. I will tower during this rotation)

"A new season has started! Time to get my friends together and form a guild, We will break the 'most hours gained during a season' record."

Only 3 out of 6 towers would be used during each rotation, which would cause more guilds to fight over each tower. How is this not going to cause more competition?

I would have preferred weekly, but I think more people like for the towers to change every 3 months. I don't know, I get bored fast. Weekly to me would be more fun (fresh start, less camping)

I would definetly take out Deadwood if I could

Each tower is different in its own unique way, and Deadwood is the small tower type with not much running space, thats just how its made.
